Oct 31st, 2017 - 12:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0How's the Malvinas Chunnel project going?
Tunnelling equipment broken down has it?
Where are the Super Gauchos with 2ft knives that Korned Beef Kate promised in 1982?
They've still to show up.
Boat delayed by 35 years?
Why did Pinedo crew the Sarandi with British sailors and then expect them to fight British sailors and marines on the Clio?
Bit stupid wasn't it, when he could have crewed the Sarandi with convicted criminals from the United Provinces?
Why did Louis Vernet give most of his top positions to people from Britain? (i.e, Brisbane, Metcalf, Helsby?).
Why did Vernet prefer German, British and USA originated settlers to people from the United Provinces ?
Why did the United Provinces need a British guy to run their navy.
All this adds up to is little homeborn talent, though there were notable exceptions such as Antonina Roxa, a fine example of a hard working lady from South America who chose British nationality by staying in the Falkland Islands in 1833, to become a Falkland Islander.
Having ended up with her own ranch she did much better than staying with one of the idiots from the United Provinces military who failed to fight HMS Clio, even though the total number of military and the crew of the Sarandi outnumbered the Brits.
You lot never learn from history!
Same in 1982, as in 1833, Brits travel a long way, well outnumbered by Argentines.
Who won?
By the way adding three zeros to your figure you got from INDEC.
The result will be exactly the same amigo ;-).
England will return the Malvinas within 25 years.
